The DOJ Will Investigate Itself Over Omitted Epstein Reports. Problem Solved! … from Crooks & Liars Conover Kennard

Nothing says “total transparency” like the Department of Justice suddenly discovering they may have accidentally-on-purpose mislabeled Epstein-related documents and left them out of a high-profile public release. And sure, this doesn’t make Trump look any guiltier (wink-wink).

The DOJ has just announced that it will take a good, hard look at whether some interview reports got a little too creatively categorized during their review process, resulting in their super-mysterious, not-at-all-obvious absence from the Epstein file dump.

This bombshell of a completely predictable non-explanation comes after ABC News and other outlets had the sheer audacity to actually do journalism and notice that the DOJ seemed to have quietly sat on dozens of pages of witness notes — notes that, according to Rep.
